Students browsed the Heifer International catalog of livestock gifts and voted on how to spend the remaining money after the pledged $120 goat was purchased. Our results? In addition to the goat, we gave a llama, a hive of honeybees, and two flocks of chicks. How cool is that?

Our project was a success thanks to the many West Ridge students and parents who baked items for us to sell, who worked the sale table each morning, and who purchased the treats so that we could make a generous donation. Congrats to all involved!

I can’t believe that our school can eat that much food!!!! The good thing is that this helped a family in need and that is very important. I think its good for our school to be doing this. I hope I can help out with the next one. 🙂

It’s amazing that we were able to raise so much money for Heifer International! The feeling you get when you know you have donated to help families in need. It’s truly amazing. We surpassed our goal by a lot! West Ridge students really like treats!

Hi Mrs. Kriese.
I think that it is awesome how you raised over double what your goal was! This is an amazing project to participate in. I think that you really changed some peoples lives for the better.

I amazed that your class was able to raise so much money! I remember buying a cookie from the bake sale, it was delicious. Your students must of worked extremely hard to not only reach your goal, but almost triple it! Awesome job!

That post was inspiring. Congratulations on raising so much money! I think it’s amazing that students got so inspired and decided to do something good. I also thought it was awesome that you managed to donate even more than a goat. Congratulations again and great post!

Hey Mrs. Kriese! This was such a great idea to raise money for people in need. I love the idea of giving goats, because that gives them milk and lots of other things! I hope you keep on doing this, and I would love to help!

I thought that it sounded like a very noble project when I first heard of it, and wished I could have bought something. The reason I couldn’t buy anything was that I had no money on me when I remembered it, which was at school.
